Brooklyn, NY
Friends,
As a company, our roots are grounded in innovation. Since the 1600s, a relentless curiosity in what we can
improve has remained the driving force of D’Addario. From design to distribution, we’re dedicated to inspiring
musicians around the world with tools to express themselves, all the while maintaining the smallest possible
carbon footprint. These core values are exemplified in the products we proudly introduce this year. Across
every brand and with each initiative, we’ve created a higher standard of performance.
In our Fretted Strings division, we’ve leveraged the success of our proprietary NY Steel by bringing it to two
new guitar string series — Nickel Bronze and NYXL Bass. Our premium Nickel Bronze strings offer acoustic
players unprecedented clarity and more authentic tone, while our premium NYXL Bass strings deliver new
sonic possibilities.
Similarly, we celebrate improved technology in our Woodwinds division by bringing our cutting-edge Digital
Reed Making process to the majority of our reed brands, creating a whole new level of consistency. With this
year’s packaging redesigns, D’Addario Woodwinds will display a more contemporary look that also utilizes
sustainable materials.
We’re also excited about our newest advancements in Percussion, specifically in Promark with the invention
of our ActiveGrip™ coating for unrivaled control, as well as the opening of our eco-conscious sawmill in
Tennessee. Plus, through our “Play. Plant. Preserve” program, we plant five trees for each one used,
reaffirming our commitment to the environment.
In closing, our quest to inspire and enable performance would not be possible without your support. As the
president of this company, and on behalf of the entire D’Addario family of employees, please allow me to
express our indelible gratitude. We’ll continue to show our appreciation by always striving to innovate and
provide you with the absolute best products and service.
Regards,
John D’Addario III
President

NEW STRINGS,
NEW POSSIBILITIES
Following the success of our NYXL electric guitar strings, this year builds on
that momentum with two new premium string series for both electric bass
and acoustic guitar. These innovations expand our string
offering to an entirely new level of performance.
We’re excited to announce that the same
exclusive NY Steel that revolutionized the
industry in NYXL electric guitar strings has
now been applied to two new strings —
NYXL Bass and Nickel Bronze Acoustic.
First, we’ve rebuilt the electric bass string to
bring more sonic possibilities to bass players.
NYXL Bass combines our high-carbon NY Steel
core and up to three wraps of our reformulated
nickel-plated steel in new core-to-wrap ratios. This
advanced construction provides more range and sustain than any other bass
string. Meticulously designed for all playing styles, this string features deep,
powerful lows with focused punch, increased dynamics, and accentuated
harmonic response.
Second, our premium Nickel Bronze acoustic guitar sets feature NY Steel
wrapped with our revolutionary nickel-plated phosphor bronze to bring out
the most natural tonal characteristics of any guitar. While many strings add
unnecessary color, these strings simply highlight the guitar’s inner character,
revealing warm, harmonically rich and balanced overtones.
Engineered for longer life, Nickel Bronze creates a
focused and articulated, yet beautifully neutral
sound, allowing the most natural frequencies
to come through.
With these new string series, electric,
acoustic, and bass guitarists alike can
experience unrivaled pitch stability and
superior strength while exploring new
territory in their playing.

NYXL Nickel Round Wound Electric Guitar Sets
D’Addario NYXL guitar strings bend further, sing louder, and stay in tune better than any string you’ve played before. Envisioned, perfected,
and manufactured by D’Addario in New York, this newly engineered, break-resistant, high-carbon steel core and plain steel alloy delivers
a whole new level of freedom, confidence, and power.
• STAY IN TUNE BETTER: Improved tuning stability compared to traditional nickel wound strings - get in tune faster, stay in tune better.
• MORE PUNCH AND CRUNCH: The reformulated nickel-plated steel alloy boosts amplitude in the 1 kHz to 3.5 kHz range, modernizing
overall tone without ever losing that incredible nickel-plated steel feel you love.
• BEND FURTHER: At two whole steps higher, NYXL strings are still at less than 75% of their breaking point. In the same setting,
standard strings are at 90% of their full capacity.
• STRUM HARDER: Exclusive New York-manufactured, high-carbon steel alloy for unprecedented strength. STANDARD GAUGE

XL™ Pure Nickel Round Wound
D’Addario XL Pure Nickel strings look back to the ‘50s,
when nickel was the primary alloy found in electric
guitar strings. Pure nickel strings would be supplanted
by nickel plated steel in the ‘60s when guitarists
required brighter tone and enhanced magnetism. Pure
Nickel brings back the richer, warmer timbres found in
traditional blues, classic rock, rockabilly, and more.

Gypsy Jazz
80/20 Bronze Round Wound
80/20 Bronze, commonly referred to as brass, is the
original acoustic string alloy selected by John D’Addario
Sr. and John D’Angelico in the 1930s. 80/20 Bronze strings
are popular for recording due to their crisp, deep, and
projecting tone, and they appeal to many traditionalists
and vintage enthusiasts for their historical significance. All D’Addario acoustic
strings are wound on a hexagonally shaped, high-carbon steel core, resulting
in long-lasting, bright-sounding tone with excellent intonation.

I’ve used D’Addario stainless steel strings for nearly
20 years now, because they deliver the best quality
strings in three areas: 1) Tonally, they sound like I
always wanted a bright stainless steel string to
sound; 2) In terms of longevity, they have a great
“new” and “middle” period, better than any other
string I’ve tried; 3) In terms of reliability, they’re
always great right out of the box, and I go through
a LOT of strings. They just rock!

Nyltech Ukulele
Developed in cooperation with Aquila, D’Addario Nyltech
strings are an exclusive combination of materials
designed to deliver an optimal combination of warm yet
punchy tone, comfortable playability, precise intonation
and tuning stability not found in other ukulele strings.
Pro·Arté Titanium Ukulele
™
Pro-Arté Titanium Ukulele strings are crafted from a dense
monofilament material that has an attractive, translucent
purple hue and a polished, smooth feel. These sets
have a brighter tone and increased projection when
compared to standard nylon, resulting in more volume,
clarity and dynamics.

BY MUSICIANS
At D’Addario, it is our mission to bring you the most cutting-edge products
throughout our accessories and instrument care line.
This year, we expand our tuner line with the
NS Micro Soundhole and Banjo Tuner. The
NS Micro Soundhole Tuner clips just inside
the acoustic soundhole, making it easy for
the performer to see, yet hardly noticeable to
the audience. Having a compact tuner allows
discreet tuning in any environment without
heavy attachments to the headstock. Similarly,
the NS Micro Banjo Tuner utilizes a bracket
attachment to the banjo’s tension rods to provide
tuning at a moment’s notice. The bracket provides
two planes of movement for the perfect viewing angle
and no need for removal when storing the instrument.
One of the most exciting products we’ve manufactured this year is our stateof-the-art Humiditrak. A Bluetooth smart sensor that tracks temperature and
humidity, the Humiditrak comes with a free smartphone app that tracks data
and sends notifications of any hazardous conditions that may affect your
guitar’s health and integrity. Using multiple sensors for multiple instruments
allows tracking of an entire instrument collection with a single application.
This year, we’ve also worked with some of New
York’s top designers to add over 100 new straps
to our collection. From classic black to vibrant,
colorful graphics, our unique straps are
designed with every playing style in mind
to give players one more way to express
themselves.
As musicians ourselves, we strive to create
tools that help players focus on their sound
so they can perform with ease. We appreciate
your support as we continue expanding the
breadth of D’Addario Accessories to create the
ultimate playing experience for every musician.

Two-Way Humidification System
D’Addario brings you Boveda’s® patented technology as part of our instrument care line.
Boveda is the first two-way humidity control that maintains a constant 45%-50% relative
humidity level inside your instrument case. The patented Two-Way Humidification System
completely eliminates all the guesswork and anxiety of maintaining your instrument’s proper
humidity level. No more guessing if or when to refill the humidifier and worrying about drips
or mess. No more manual adjustments based on seasonal changes, geographic locations,
temperature, or other factors. Unlike all refillable humidifiers, this humidification system
provides true two-way purified humidity control since it adds or depletes moisture only as
needed to maintain 45%-50% RH — the ideal climate for wooden instruments.

HUMIDITY CONTROL
NEW! Humidifier Pro
The D’Addario Humidifier Pro uses a specialized hydrophilic sponge that holds 12x its dry weight in water (much
more than ordinary sponges), which allows for longer periods between refills and increases protection in drier
environments. Preserving your instruments’ ultimate playability by guarding against cracks, warped necks, and
shrinkage is now easier and less work. Suspended by the strings, the humidifier releases moisture evenly and
slowly inside your guitar, yet never touches the guitar’s body. The humidifier’s stopper allows you to check the
sponge without removal of the unit and provides a tight seal when in place. Maintaining the humidifier is as easy
as moistening the sponge when it becomes dry.
• Specialized sponge holds 12x its weight in water
• Longer time between refills
• S topper allows quick status check without removing
the humidifier from the guitar

D’Addario Small Instrument Humidifier for acoustic guitar cases when your humidity is consistently 20% or lower.

After years of thrashing around
onstage with Periphery, there
have been few elements of my rig
that have never failed me once,
broke, or gave in to the relentless
nature of the show we put on: the
D’Addario strap. It is undoubtedly
the most reliable element of my
live show.

CELLULOID PICKS
One of the first polymers ever created, cellulose nitrate is made by reacting cotton fibers with nitric acid. Used for more than a century as the base for movie and 35mm film,
celluloid was substituted for natural tortoise shell picks in the early 1900’s. Still one of the most popular pick materials available today, they are available in a variety of thicknesses, shapes, and colors, and provide a­­­ natural feel with warm, fat tone.

AMERICAN STAGE CABLES
American Stage Instrument Cables
American Stage Instrument Cables are built from the ground up to ensure that nothing comes between you and your tone.
Our custom design, made in the USA wire reproduces full lows and rich highs, accurately transferring your true tone with clarity
and noise-free operation.
Our in line solder process utilizes modern micro-flame technology and specially formulated RoHS compliant solder to create a
permanent bond between wire and connector for unsurpassed strain relief and durability.
Speaking of connectors, ours are designed to exacting specifications, and are built with confidence by Neutrik® in their state-ofthe-art facility in Lichtenstein, using the highest quality components available.
And finally, our innovative patented GeoTip™ provides a seamless and secure connection between your guitar and amp. It all adds
up to tone: the best materials, customized design, and U.S.A. precision manufacturing combine to deliver a truly unique, professional
performance cable.
Patent #US 7967643
GEOTIP™ CONNECTION:
Patented GeoTip design ensures
a secure connection in any
instrument, pedal, or amp jack.
ORDINARY CONNECTION:
Mechanical tolerances on 1/4” jacks used in
most guitars over the last sixty years vary. As
a result, some plugs may not connect and lock
in well. GeoTip is designed to accommodate
these out-of-tolerance jacks.
American Stage
Killswitch Cables
The American Stage Killswitch cables
feature a momentary “Killswitch” for

PERCUSSION
DRUMHEADS THAT
TRULY SET THE TONE
To recap some of our highlights from 2015, Evans went big by going small with a
variety of 16" bass drumheads to satiate the growing popularity of subway, bop,
and breakbeat kits. Then we rocked the resonant side with
Reso 7, the first coated resonant head in the Evans
line. Biggest of all, we continued to spread the
Level 360 revolution manifesto: 360 degree fit +
manufacturing consistency = wider tonal range
so you can find your own sound.
In 2016, we’ll be building on Level 360’s
success by launching a new marketing
campaign powered by a simple rallying cry for
drummers everywhere: Set the tone. Featuring
dealer events, print, digital, social and content
executions, the campaign will focus on how Evans
heads give drummers more ways than ever to achieve
the sound they’ve imagined.
With this year being our 60th birthday, we’re giving drummers an all-new sound
palette to paint with while focusing on simplifying our own line logic. Have a
look at the handy “Evans Must Haves” section on the next page. Yes, it’s a big
line, but we want to make sure you have all the in-demand essentials stocked.
DRUM
H
Kicking off the new sounds of ‘16, Evans will be taking the
A Train uptown to the be-bop era with a new vintage
line designed to capture the texture, warmth, and
look of calfskin while maintaining the quality and
consistency of Level 360. Warm, open, and woody
resonant bass drumheads evoke the great jazz
kick drum sounds of the 1940s, while the batter
heads deliver full, textured tones that stick and
S
brush players are looking for.
EAD
And finally, in further celebration of the big 6-0,
we’re bringing back an Evans classic — the Red
Hydraulic. With the same warm, easy-to-tune ‘70s
rock sound of the blue, black, and glass hydraulics,
it’s back in red for the first time in decades. Look for
more surprises like this in the future as Evans continues
to help drummers define their own sound.

warmth, sustain, and articulation. The highperformance 10mil film ensures that the G1s are
both durable and expressive. Excellent option for

Strata™ 1000 Concert Tom Heads
As the mid-range voice within the Strata family, a
calfskin-colored coating provides the 10mil Strata
Concert Tom heads with a warm, round tone and a
darker fundamental.
G12™
Using an exclusive 12mil film, the G12 delivers the
open and warm tone of a single-ply while the
added thickness provides increased durability,
attack, and projection for hard hitters. On snare,
the head produces a definitive “crack” while
maintaining an ambient sound. The coating adds
additional warmth, focus, and depth. Excellent
option for tom resonant heads.

TOM & SNARE TWO-PLY HEADS
EC2™
EC2 tom heads feature Sound Shaping
Technology™ (SST™), an new ink-based damping
technique that ensures optimized performance
for each individually sized drumhead. Made using
two plies of 7mil film, the new design increases
attack, tone, length of sustain, and ease of tuning
for each head size — delivering a more balanced and
pre-EQ’d sound across the full kit. *US Patent # 7,214,867
G2™
A two-ply head featuring consistency and
durability, the G2 offers the perfect blend of

Edge Control
EC snare heads combine Evans’ “Edge Control”
technology that pre-EQs the sound, removing
troublesome mid-range overtones that muddy the

extra durability, focus, and attack in the center.
Genera™ and Genera™ Dry
This classic Evans head is 10mil single-ply with the
fat sound of a two-ply, featuring a 2mil overtone
control ring on the underside that “floats” with
the head, suppressing excessive overtones and

MARCHING SNARE HEADS
MARCHING SNARE BATTER
MARCHING SNARE SIDES
Hybrid Series Snare Side
Hybrid Series Snare Batter
By imbedding high-tensile fibers in an open weave
pattern between two ultra-thin layers of clear film,
the Hybrid marching snare side head produces the
sound and sensitivity of a polyester bottom with a
resistance to stretch that is closer to Kevlar™.
By utilizing two unique high-tensile fibers, one
chosen for flexibility and the other for durability, the
Hybrid marching snare batter achieves a much softer feel, greater sensitivity, and a broader dynamic
range while enhancing projection and durability.

Inspired by the design of the award-winning
Hybrid batter series, the Hybrid-S batter features
two unique fibers that, when blended together,
deliver a soft and sensitive feel with a warm, full,
and tonally rich sound with superior snare response
desired by the world’s top marching ensembles.
Without sacrificing durability, the Hybrid-S achieves
a softer feel perfect for younger hands, and wider
response that makes smaller lines sound big.

MARCHING TENOR HEADS
System Blue™ Tenor
Heads (7mil+7.5mil)
Designed in cooperation with the Blue
Devils percussion staff, the System Blue
tenor head is a 2-ply design with 7mil top-ply
and 7.5mil bottom. This combination delivers
tonal clarity and projection while also increasing
durability and pitch stability, reducing the need for
frequent tuning. The series also utilizes Evans’ unique
Sound Shaping Technology™, a damping technique that
targets unwanted overtones and provides the control
needed to enhance attack, projection, and note definition. The
damping pattern on each head also provides a visual reference
for the optimal ‘playing zone’ for each drum, offering a target for
less experienced lines.

Corps Clear™
Tenor Heads (6.5mil+10mil)
The 2-ply design with 6.5mil top-ply and
10mil bottom-ply not only delivers clarity of
tone over the drum but enables the drums to cut
through the ensemble in clear and discernible pitches
to reach out front and into the stands. The extra
thickness (16.5mil total) compared to standard tenor heads
(14-15mil total) make the Corps Clear more durable. This added
durability not only prolongs the life of the head but keeps them in
tune longer.

E-Rings™
The E-Ring is an easy-to-use external overtone control ring which “floats” on
the surface of a drumhead. It removes overtones and flattens the drumhead’s
sound and allows for easier tuning. Our E-Ring PrePaks™ are designed to match
the most common drum set configurations, and allow dealers to stock a
minimal number of SKUs in order to meet the needs of customers.

EQ Pad™
The EQ Pad is a highly efficient bass drum muffler
that attaches to the bottom of the bass drum shell
with Velcro®. The hinged pad bounces off the head,
allowing sustain before returning to damp the
vibrating head. The new version includes a
smaller pad on the opposite end that can be used on
smaller drums or for minimal damping.

Min-EMAD™
Trim and unobtrusive, the Min-EMAD removes unwanted
frequencies but retains desired attack, tone, and feel.
By linking the vibrating head with the relatively inert
counterhoop, the Min-EMAD removes overtones by resisting
the motion of the head.

the straps from the strainer or butt clamps, enabling quick and
easy head or wire changes.

Custom Series
Custom Series wires feature medium-gauge wire with
evenly spaced, standard coils. The Custom line offers 4
different strand configurations that can be employed to change the
balance between the drum and snare components of the sound.
Models with more strands tend to allow the snares to be more
active in influencing the sound while those with less strands allow
the drum to be more prominent in the overall drum sound.

Equalizer Series
The Equalizer line has been created to modify the spread
and activity of the snare sound by working in conjunction
with the snare drum’s natural acoustics and snare bed design.
Equalizers feature an offset design that removes the strands
from the middle of the drum, decreasing the vibration of the
wires. Not only is the snare drum drier and crisper with an
Equalizer, it is less influenced by sympathetic vibrations from
other drums and instruments.

developed for high-volume, high-intensity drumming. They

Super 30 Series
The Super 30 Series utilizes the same steel alloy wires,
handcrafted construction methods, and exclusive
copper end clips as the Custom Series in a 30-strand
format designed to increase snare response and
articulation. Compared to other wide-format snare
wires, the Puresound Super 30 wires are able to create
a distinctive and penetrating sound without choking the
drum or sacrificing its feel. Additionally, the Super 30
needs only a slightly wider than normal snare bed (3 to
3.5 inch) for optimum performance.

A NEW ERA OF DRUMSTICK
INNOVATION BEGINS
Building on our recent wave of advances, this year we’re releasing entirely
new models that promise to push the industry bar to new heights.
In 2015, Promark Made Waves with Glenn Kotche’s
highly innovative Active Wave 570, Owned the Cajon
with the Medium Broomstick, revamped Select
Balance with an all-new look and campaign, hit the
lot with two new System Blue marching drumstick
models, celebrated legendary endorsee Neil Peart
with the limited edition R40 version of his classic
signature stick, and rolled out new packaging for
our rods, brushes, and broomsticks. Promark also
broke ground on a new 75,000 square-foot saw
mill in Tennessee, a state-of-the-art facility designed
to provide unprecedented control, wood quality, and the
ability to utilize every inch of each tree. Promark remains the only drumstick
company with their own sawmill.
In 2016, Promark will launch stock models with acorn tips for the first time
in its 59-year history. Since faithfully featuring the oval tip for over half a
century, Promark is now pleased to introduce the all-new 7A, 5A, and 5B
— available in both Rebound and Forward balance and featuring a newly
designed acorn tip with a larger sweet spot for greater responsiveness.
And for those who thought drumsticks couldn’t evolve any further, D’Addario
has reimagined the entire feel of the drumstick with
ActiveGrip™ — a heat-activated coating that gets
tackier as a drummer’s hands heat up. Without
sacrificing feel, ActiveGrip allows drummers to
handle all situations with confidence and control
like never before, knowing their sticks won’t slip
out of their hands. Without rubber handles to
tear up your hands or tape to add diameter and
mass, ActiveGrip has all the benefits of natural
wood drumsticks with the added bonus of liquid
technology — available on Rebound and Forward
Balance versions of 7A, 5A, and 5B to start.
Finally, what is a slew of new drumsticks without
something to carry them? Look for our newly designed
stick bag series with versions for mallet players, marching
drummers, and both student and pro drumset players. Now the best drumsticks
will also have the best protection.

Broomsticks™
Promark is the pioneer in utilizing natural broomcorn to create
truly unique percussive implements. Broomsticks provide more
volume that brushes and less volume than Hot Rods, making them
the perfect implement for any player seeking to expand their
sound pallet. Adjustable commercial-grade rubber bands allow
for easy variation of tone, articulation and feel. Broomsticks are
highly recommended for use on Cajon.

System Blue™ Diversity Series
System Blue™ Jim Wunderlich Series
As the name implies, this series has been designed by The Blue Devils
percussion staff to be a diverse line of mallets for indoor or outdoor
percussion. The eight mallets in this line cater to a variety of players
and educators by featuring four graduated vibraphone mallets and four
graduated marimba mallets designed for use with natural or synthetic bars.
These mallets hold up to any musical demand while still achieving a true,
fundamental tone from the keyboard, and are perfect for ensembles seeking
clarity and articulation.
The Jim Wunderlich Series marimba mallets feature a rubber-like synthetic
core wrapped tightly with durable synthetic yarn on a lacquered birch shaft
for a smooth finish with maximum strength. The vibe mallets feature a rubberlike synthetic core wrapped tightly with cord on a rattan shaft. While they have
durable components for outdoor environments, the lush tone of these mallets
is an appropriate and tasteful choice for indoor concert or marching settings.

MARCHING BASS DRUM MALLETS
Performer Series Marching Bass Drum Mallets
Optima Series Marching Bass Drum Mallets
Performer Series Marching Bass Drum Mallets are made with select
grade American Hickory handles and a special extra-dense felt head. A

on to while the upward taper at the head means exceptional balance and
sound projection. The series is available in five sizes and is also available

The Optima Marching Bass Drum Mallets feature a uniquely contoured

TIMELESS PHILOSOPHY,
MODERN INNOVATION
At the end of 2015, we unveiled a fresh look for D’Addario Orchestral.
To become visually and philosophically unified as a
line, our packaging was reimagined to present our
products as a vibrant series of strings for every
level of player.
This year, we’re excited to introduce several
new products. Following the successful
release of our Kaplan violin sets, we are now
introducing Kaplan Amo and Kaplan Vivo for
viola. Using the same design philosophy as our
violin sets, we crafted these strings according
to the needs and demands of the modern
professional. Kaplan Amo and Vivo pay homage to
the sound of vintage strings of the early 20th century,
while integrating modern features like stability and projection to meet
the standards of today’s players.
For double bass, we’ll be releasing the Kaplan Solo Bass set. Designed
for solo tuning, these strings combine the hallmark playability
and versatility of our original Kaplan Orchestral set in A-E-B-F# tuning.
As always, our top goals are unsurpassed quality and greatest consistency,
as reflected on our production floor. We’ve invested significantly in
the continuous improvement of our manufacturing processes to deliver
the very best products to our customers.
We’re also continuing our support of orchestra
directors and private string teachers by producing
new tools to foster musical learning. Initiatives
such as creating new classroom literature,
as well as developing more online learning
resources, such as our Strings 101 Website
(daddario.com/factorytour), exemplify
our dedication to music education around
the world.
Although we have a new look and many
new products, our mission remains the same
– to create and provide innovative products
for orchestral musicians at every level, in every
location, for every musical occasion.

rigorous playing, use with fretted instruments, or protection from corrosive
elements: the titanium A string provides an alternative to the standard
aluminum Helicore A string. A 5-string Helicore violin set is also available
and includes an additional low C string.

CELLO STRINGS
Kaplan™ Cello Strings
I use Kaplan Cello Strings on
both my acoustic cello (heavy
tension) and electric cello
(medium tension). Kaplan
strings provide a deep, rich
tone, and I am able to get a
consistent and even sound.
Kaplans also have a dark
quality without sounding too
bright, and provide a great
deal of clarity.
Matt Turner
The Kaplan Cello Set is aimed at the most discerning
musician. Its construction allows for heavy bow weight
without losing sound clarity in the softest dynamics.
The Kaplan cello set sounds warm and complex, and
offers generous projection. The tension is well-balanced
throughout the set.

& 44-45) to see our full line of tuners, tuning forks,
polishing cloths and other accessories available for
orchestral instruments.
I’ve tried fiddle strings made by other companies, but the reason
I play D’Addario is the consistency of tone. With D’Addario, when
I put new strings on my fiddle I know that the clear and balanced
tone I rely on will be there for me. They have the right amount of
tension for delicate detail, and give just enough flex which lets me
dig in and get as much out of the strings as I need.

A BREATH OF
FRESH AIR
We’ve taken a new approach to D’Addario Woodwinds products, creating
new innovations with the most cutting edge technology for developing
and advanced players.
Made with our future-facing Digital Reed Making
process, D’Addario Reserve reeds (now available
for clarinet, alto, tenor and soprano saxophone)
are crafted with the most consistent
manufacturing practices in the industry.
Other reed brands, such as Select Jazz,
have been migrated to our digital machines
and more brands will follow in 2016. Our
sophisticated reed making technology will
also bring a new level of consistency to Rico
and Royal reeds (now branded “by D’Addario” to
celebrate improved quality). What’s more, Rico and
Royal will display a fresh look this year with new packaging.
Our D’Addario-branded mouthpieces prove that you can achieve a vintage
tone with laser-milled technology. The Reserve Clarinet mouthpiece line
now has six models with various facings to meet the needs of clarinetists
worldwide. The Select Jazz Tenor Saxophone mouthpiece will also debut
in 2016 to pair with the Select Jazz Alto Saxophone mouthpiece.
Serving student to professional woodwind players, the D’Addario Reed
Guards and All Natural Cork Grease provide a modern and stylish way to
protect reeds and instruments.
As we continue releasing D’Addario woodwind accessories
in 2016, we will also continue repackaging our Rico
accessories with environmentally conscious materials
for educators and students across the globe.
These innovations and initiatives underscore
D’Addario’s passion not only for raising the
bar, but for being the bar. We will unveil these
products with ambitious marketing in order to
get the finest products in the hands of every
musician and drive sales directly to you, our
respected dealer.
In a world of uniformity, let D’Addario be the breath
of fresh air every unique musician needs.

The Reserve mouthpiece is the best mouthpiece that I
have ever played! It allows me to produce a velvety rich
sound that has diamond-like shimmering core. It makes all
other mouthpieces feel simple and two-dimensional.
